Well for starters I'm not one to pretend about my value to DL. I know I'm not a high spend elite (although this year will be my highest spend year by far - I have the AmEx waiver and will hit PM but will easily clear the GM $6K spending threshold). But second, as a GM I'm often behind a lot of people on the upgrade list when I am in Y and FCM has allowed me to get up to FC on routes I'd otherwise never have a prayer of an upgrade on. If FC is too expensive and doesn't sell, those seats would go to others ahead of me and I still wouldn't be up there anyway. So it sounds like you're more upset that FCM is allowing people like me to get up to FC and Yourr trying to spin it in a way that you think should make me mad, when it otherwise seems to be working out just fine for me.
